Chinese Navy (PLAN) News & Discussions

I would be very surprised if China ever built a warship for Russia!

I mean, it would be a huge pill for the Russians to swallow, particularly now as they have been seriously burnt by the French, with the non-delivery of the 'Mistral' class, due to US pressure!

As you said Chinese shipyards are very busy building ships for their countries Navy (and that's why i come to this forum, to see the exciting developments going on in the Chinese military), and they seem only prepared to build say small warships for export to other friendly nations.

Regarding the AIIB bank...................i thought it was a really good idea that the UK is now looking to China for future investments, and we have somehow started the ball running, as other European nations have followed suit!...........much to the annoyance of the American goverment!

btw: the Chinese and British people are friends.

BTW,it is very comfortable to deal with smart country like UK.

Of course, they do, in fact everybody does. even the mighty U. s does, since it's far cheaper, economically viable to import from China, so what's your point bro?
Small parts, is different from entire sophisticated weapon systems altogether . So there is no comparison at all between the two. Since the latter is more high end /expensive than low cost weapons spare parts .
